Player of the Match
Grace Harris | Royal Challengers Bengaluru
I’m just really glad to be classified as an all-rounder for this game. I was pretty happy when Smriti said, “You’re going to get on next over,” and I thought, yes, I get to bowl today.
With the batting, we’ve been working on a few things, and I’m happy I’ve gone back to some older patterns. It seems to be working. I’m feeling a bit more free, not thinking too much, and that’s made a big difference.
Mainly my head position, along with a few small technical tweaks. Tactically, it’s about where I can set up to best access certain bowlers.
